Chrome 77 allows sending pages between devices - Kyng - 09-14-2019

Google Chrome 77 feature lets you fly pages over from one device to another.

Phandroid, Android Headlines, 9to5Google, just a few of the sites highlighting this, regarding one of Chrome's browser update.

Android Central was also in the reporting lineup; the new update will become available on all platforms in time. Also, Ben Mason posted this on September 11 on the Chrome Releases page. "Hi, everyone! We've just released Chrome 77 (77.0.3865.73) for Android: it'll become available on Google Play over the next few weeks."

So, out of all those visual changes to Chrome this time, the majority of Google watchers expressed their good vibes for a Chrome 77 feature that simply involves sending web pages along to different devices.

Google will now begin to make the page-sending Chrome 77 browser update feature available to Windows, Mac, Android & iOS this week. You can right-click on a link and a new context menu will appear that lets you send links to other devices where you use Chrome, said Darren Millar in Phandroid.



Sounds pretty neat :) . I'm not sure how much use I'll get out of it myself, since I only really use one device at a time anyway - but, I might get a little bit of use out of it, if I discover a page while I'm on my phone, and later want to see it on my laptop.

On the other hand, Chrome 77 is also blocking Netgear login pages - so, let's hope that's fixed soon -_- .
